2023-2024 will be the last season for St MARY ski area
It has been announced that the St MARY ski area in Miyagi Prefecture will close at the end of the 2023-2024 season.
Reasons given for the decision to close are the 'decline in the number of skiers and the effects of warmer winters'.

Webcams
https://www.snowjapan.com/japan-daily-snow-weather-reports/webcams
Our webcam listings have been updated with quite a few new ones added (and some old ones removed).
An increasing number of ski areas are using YouTube to have video webcams, which are a significant improvement over what they had previously.
We will continue to check and update the listings at least once a week during the winter season.
If you know of any ski area webcams that we do not list, please let us know.

Forgot to mention.... all main updates were completed on 30th December 2023.
Having said that, information for about 15 needs rechecking and confirming. It is amazing how some small ski areas have absolutely no updated information available.
With the generally low snowfall at the start of this winter season, quite a few ski areas around Japan have had to delay opening (or close after initially opening).
Hopefully the supply of snow will improve.
